Default Lowest Profile Air Cleaner?

I just bought a used 07 Fxst. It came with a Kuryakyn Pro-R Hypercharger w/ a Trap Door, and 3" exteneded reach controlls (which i really need). With this breather i can hardly use the rear brake w/o becoming a contortion artist, or rest more then the back of my heel on the peg. I have been looking for over a week for a new breather and cant decide since no site gives the dimensions of their products.

So my question is to those who are more knowledgeable. What is the lowest profile breather to get some leg/knee room?

The lowest profile Air Cleaners on the market are the Outlaw 425 and Outlaw 587.

The 587 is 5.875" in diameter and sticks out from the throttle body right at 2", compared to stock that sticks out about 4"

The 425 is 4.25" in diameter and sticks out for the throttle body right at 2.25", almost 2" less than stock.

DK Custom,
i found an old thread from 2011 that you had mentioned a low & super-low but only listed the 587. Thank you listing the models and dimensions of both.

Not the best pics but here is the 587 on my Heritage. I took a couple quick photos to show someone the way I routed my external breather line so not the best quality but gives you an ide what it looks like. I chose the polished cover and added the tri-star nut also.

That looks Great! Course I'm a bit biased, but that is the first of that combo I've seen and I really like it.

I just installed the DK Custom 425 kit last week and I can't see there being a lower profile air cleaner out there. I will snap a few pictures and post them if it will help.
